Hey Fruitheads (Jimmy Buffet fans are called Parrot heads so this sounded appropriate)
The Fairchild Tropical Garden gift shop carries a nice selection of fruit & plant books at fair prices and from Feb18th until March 4th, they are offering 20% off everything and an extra 10% if you are a member of the garden. Today I ordered the Harry Lorenzi Brazil Fruit book for $53 plus 6% tax & shipping. It sells for $89 on Amazon. They also have a super deal on Bill Whitman's "Five Decades of Trop Fruit" book for $39.95. They only do this once a year...don't miss out!
